GRAND OPENING

Saturday, November 14, 2015 at 9 a.m.

On Saturday, November 14th, poqetDONUTS will bring OC's first customizable doughnut shop to Irvine. The first 100 guests in line for the big day will enjoy a complimentary doughnut from poqetDONUTS’ unique signature flavors, including Avocado, Burnt Pistachio, Blueberry, Pumpkin Spice, Tiramisu, Nutella, Green Tea, and Butter Salt. In addition, 10% of the day’s sales from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. will be donated to The Irvine Public Schools Foundation.

“Currently, we have the opportunity to customize almost any food, from tacos to pizza, so why not allow the public to create their own doughnut?” asked Fenny Yan, owner of poqetDONUTS. “We offer a range of glaze options and toppings to satisfy a variety of palates. I tell my guests if they don’t see something they like, to create something they love!”

Seasonal Signature Doughnuts Include:

Avocado – Green is the new black.

Maple Bacon – The main reason we are not vegetarians.

Campfire – Let's roast some marshmallows and party S'more!

Butter Salt – Abs are cool, but have you had our butter salt doughnuts?

Vegan – Strawberry, Blueberry, and other options available select days

Fun Fact: The name poqet, pronounced “pocket,” is derived from a folklore story of two best friends who met on a park bench daily to share doughnuts, which were kept in their pockets. The story of these “pocket donut” friends is placed on the wall inside the shop to provide a simple explanation of the name’s origins to guests.
